Gecko not pooping often

[Blacksupra94]

My 2.5 year old leo is basically pooping every 10-15 days for some reason. She eats about 2-3 superworms twice a week and occasionally crickets and when she poops it's rather large sized. Do you think shes getting constipated or is she just waiting till a lot builds up? She used to go more often but now it's rare that she actually defecates. I gave her some mineral oil today and soaked her last night which i'm sure will help her out but I don't want to have to do that every week lol .

She lives in a 20 gallon tank with no loose substrate. Her ground temps are a variant from 70-100 degrees provided by a ceramic heat emitter , she has unlimited water/calcium and she looks very healthy ( big tail and vibrant colors)

hows the poo looking when she dose go? any undigested food matter?
if shes bright, fat and healthy i would just put it down to slowing down as an adult gecko
have you tried offering her food more oftern?

Food is always digested properly. Solid with no indication of bug parts. I try to keep her at a healthy weight, I don't want her to be a giant lard so I monitor her weight and feed according to that .

Maybe she's just slowing down but I find it strange. She pooped tonight after 13 days and ate two super worms after that.

hmmm well I’m not quite a herp vet yet but if you’ve tried the mineral oil with warm baths + the fact that she pooped then ate just after wouldn’t indicate an impaction. But if you are still unsure or want to be 100% positive there’s nothing wrong, then I would suggest seeking a vet for a quick check up.
Could you possibly change the diet for a short period to perhaps locusts which are a little more fluidy to see if it makes a difference to the defecating pattern?
